Domaine Chandon Etoile Brut Cuvee
|
This very well-made wine seems to straddle the line between California fruitiness and the more complex yeast and mineral aspects of French Champagne. It leads with rich aromas of lemons, ginger, cream and lightly toasted nuts, and its briskly finished flavors confirm much of the same. Its mousse is light, yet fairly creamy, and only a bare bit of last-minute coarseness keeps it from higher award.

76% Napa Co.; 24% Sonoma Co. 75% Chardonnay; 25% Pinot Noir. This very well-made wine seems to straddle the line between California fruitiness and the more complex yeast and mineral aspects of French Champagne. It leads with rich aromas of lemons, ginger, cream and lightly toasted nuts, and its briskly finished flavors confirm much of the same. Its mousse is light, yet fairly creamy, and only a bare bit of last-minute coarseness keeps it from higher award.
